Third week of school

Open House is on Tuesday.

Please work on assignments using textbooks on line or your textbook. I have updated assignemnts linked to this blog.

All classes will have a quiz or test this week. Please be reminded that I tutor Wednesdays, but the other Math teachers also tutor if you can not come on Wednesday. Last week I was happy to tutor two young ladies in Geometry along with my students in Algebra and Algebra2/Trig.

It is difficult to know if you have any questions if you do not work on homework.
